	<p class="tip">
		<em>NOTE!</em>
		<ul>
			<li>In tablesorter version 2.0.5 and older, only the metadata and headers options methods were available to set the parsers.</li>
			<li>In versions 2.0.11+, parsers could be set using class names.</li>
			<li>Currently (versions 2.3+), parsers can be set using any of the following methods (they all do the same thing), in order of priority:
				<ul>
					<li>jQuery data <code>data-sorter="text"</code> (see the Javascript block below on how to set it directly).</li>
					<li>metadata <code>class="{ sorter: "text" }"</code>. This requires the metadata plugin.</li>
					<li>headers option <code>headers : { 0 : { sorter: "text" } }</code>.</li>
					<li>header class name <code>class="sorter-text"</code>.</li>
				</ul>
			</li>
